  1. Issuer's Business, Products and Services
  1. Summarize the issuer's business operations
    The Monarch Cement Company (Monarch) manufactures and sells portland cement. The manufacture of portland cement by Monarch involves the quarrying of clay and limestone and the crushing, drying and blending of these raw materials into the proper chemical ratio. The raw materials are then heated in kilns to 2800º Fahrenheit at which time chemical reactions occur forming a new compound called clinker. After the addition of a small amount of gypsum, the clinker is ground into a very fine powder that is known as portland cement. The term "portland cement" is not a brand name but is a term that distinguishes cement manufactured by this chemical process from natural cement, which is no longer widely used. Portland cement is the basic material used in the production of ready-mixed concrete that is used in highway, bridge and building construction where strength and durability are primary requirements.
    Subsidiaries of Monarch (which together with Monarch are referred to herein as the "Company") are engaged in the ready-mixed concrete, concrete products and sundry building materials business. Ready-mixed concrete is manufactured by combining aggregates with portland cement, water and chemical admixtures in batch plants. It is then loaded into mixer trucks and mixed in transit to the construction site where it is delivered to the contractor. Concrete products primarily include pre-formed components produced by the Company that are ready for use in the construction of commercial buildings and institutional facilities.
  2. Describe any subsidiaries, parents, or affiliated companies.
    Subsidiaries of Monarch include: Beaver Lake Concrete, Inc., Capitol Concrete Products Co., Inc., City Wide Construction Products Co., Concrete Enterprises, Inc., Concrete Materials, Inc., Dodge City Concrete, Inc., Hays Ready-Mix, Inc., Joplin Concrete Company, Inc., Kansas Sand and Concrete, Inc., Kay Concrete Materials Co., Monarch Cement of Iowa, Inc., Salina Concrete Products, Inc., Springfield Ready Mix Co. and Tulsa Dynaspan, Inc. These subsidiaries are 100% owned by Monarch and can be contacted through Monarch.
  3. Describe the issuers' principal products or services.
    The marketing area for Monarch's products, which is limited by the relatively high cost of transporting cement, consists primarily of the State of Kansas, the State of Iowa, southeast Nebraska, western Missouri, northwest Arkansas and northern Oklahoma. Included within this area are the metropolitan markets of Des Moines, Iowa; Kansas City, Missouri; Springfield, Missouri; Wichita, Kansas; Omaha, Nebraska; Lincoln, Nebraska; Fayetteville, Arkansas and Tulsa, Oklahoma. Sales of cement are made primarily to contractors, ready-mixed concrete plants, concrete products plants, building materials dealers and governmental agencies. Monarch cement is delivered either in bulk or in paper bags and is sold under the "MONARCH" brand name. The cement is distributed both by truck and rail, either common or private carrier.

Subsidiaries of Monarch sell ready-mixed concrete, concrete products and sundry building materials in Monarch's primary market.

  1. Issuer's Facilities

The Company's corporate office and cement plant, including equipment and raw materials, are located at Humboldt, Kansas, approximately 110 miles southwest of Kansas City, Missouri. The Company owns approximately 5,000 acres of land on which the Humboldt plant, offices and all essential raw materials for the cement operations are located. Construction completed in 2006 increased our cement plant's capacity allowing us to produce in excess of one million tons of cement per year. Producing at that level, raw material reserves are estimated to be sufficient to maintain operations at this plant for more than 50 years, although not all reserves are currently accessible under existing governmental permits and approvals. The Company believes that this plant and equipment are suitable and adequate for its current level of operations and provides for increases in market demand.

The Company also owns approximately 250 acres of land in Des Moines, Iowa on which it operates a cement terminal. The Company transfers cement produced in Humboldt, Kansas to this terminal for distribution to Iowa customers. The Company also owns a rock quarry located near Earlham, Iowa, approximately 30 miles west of Des Moines, Iowa. Approximately 353 acres of this 400 acre tract have been quarried and the Company has

contracted with a third party to quarry and sell the remaining rock. This quarry operation does not have a material effect on the Company's overall operations.

The Company owns various companies which sell ready-mixed concrete, concrete products and sundry building materials within the Humboldt cement plant's primary market. Various equipment and facility improvements in this line of business ensure these plants are suitable and adequate for their current level of operations and provide for increases in market demand. No single subsidiary's physical property is materially significant to the Company.

There are no material encumbrances on our properties.
